I’m a professional hat maker myself and have corresponded with this guy. He’s truly one of the few in this industry out there carrying the torch from generations before him doing things the way they have done them for generations and is passionate about what he does.

I need to see the finished product and more importantly see how you repaired that giant moth/bullet hole.😭

[Eroach]

God bless you, man. It’s awesome to see a craftsman and his work.

[OldZenMonk]

I’m a saddle big respect for what you do... we are both the keepers of a dying art, 🙏🏻❤️

The hole in the hat 😮 maybe was a wild cowboy

Where is the full video? This was interesting but cut off way too early.

Try showing the actual finished/end product

[cheebawobanu]

That looks just like my Resistol Stagecoach. Same hatband.

[anhvu]

he needs to show us the completed product... this lead to no where

[solitaire]

I want to believe that the owner is still with us and not 6 feet under 😳
Edit : 70yr old hat, bullet hole or not guessing original owner definitely not with us 🙄

[Gabaghoul]

that must've belonged to Buster Scruggs 😂

I’m just getting into hat restoration, I then burn (with a tool and make pretty art) on them. I’ve been looking for a stretching stand and was hoping you can point me in the right direction?! Thank you so much! ❤️

[Pluh_]

"About 70+ years old" dawg that looks like it's from 1870 and the bullet hole makes it look older

[RedPandaMafia]

[nobanjer]

Turn to Jesus before it’s to
Late you never know hen it’s your last breath

[minagica]

Yo that hole in the middle is frickin' freaky 😬😬😬 Did they ask you to cover it up?

[cncdan]

If it's a well made hat you can actually sand stains off of a good cowboy hat
